题型:不详难度:来源:
Doing community service work, I spent three or four hours handing out warm dinner to the homeless out in the streets. After that I went to a   16  shelter not far from the Bay Bridge.
I was in high school and at the time my sister was too young to   17  . She wanted to help,    18  she made four or five dozen chocolate chip cookies for me to    19   and hand out to people. When getting to the homeless shelter I passed out the remaining meals. I had the containers with my   20  cookies in them and began to   21  , offering them to anyone near me.
I    22   an old gentleman and said, “Sir, would you like a cookie?” He stopped and turned around, looked at me    23  in the eye and said, “What did you say? Did you call me sir?” I told him I had, and his eyes    24   a little bit and he said, “No one has    25   called me sir.” He was completely taken aback.
It struck me. 
I explained I had been raised that    26   color and social status, everyone deserved     27   . It made me    28   to think that just because he was homeless, no one    29  him the honor. It broke my   30  , and I couldn’t help   31  cry. I just didn’t understand    32  no one ever called him sir? I had never thought that anyone was below me because I wasn’t raised that way. Every    33  person deserves to be treated with dignity. Years later, I still carry that memory and the    34  it taught me. Sometimes, what we take for granted can    35  make a difference in someone’s life.
How have you made a difference to others? How have others made a difference to you?

举一反三
I wandered in the park. The park bench was___21___ as I sat down to read beneath the long, straggly (蔓延的) branches of an old willow tree. I was disappointed by life with ___22___ reason to frown, for the world was intent on dragging me down.
___23___ that weren"t enough to ruin my day, a young boy out of ___24___ approached me, all tired from play. He stood right before me and said with great excitement, "Look what I found!"
In his hand was a flower, and what a ___25___ sight, with its petals(花瓣) all worn --- not enough rain, or too little light. I faked a small ___26___, wanting him to take his dead flower and leave, and then ___27___.
But instead of leaving he sat next to my side and placed the flower to his nose and declared with surprise, "It surely smells pretty and it"s beautiful, too. That"s why I picked it; here, it"s for you."
The weed before me was dying or dead. Not brilliant colors, orange, yellow or red. But I knew I must ___28___ it, or he might never leave. So I reached for the flower, and replied, "Just what Ineed."
But ___29___ him placing the flower in my hand, he held it mid-air without ___30___ or plan. It was then that I noticed for the very first time, that young boy could not see: he was blind.
My ___31___ trembled, and tears shone like the sun as I ___32___ him for picking the very best one. "You"re welcome," he smiled, and then ran off to play, not ___33___ of the impact he"d had on my day.
I sat there and wondered how he ___34___ to see a self-pitying woman beneath an old willow tree. How did he ___35___ my difficult situation? ___36___ from his heart, he"d been blessed with true ___37___.
At last I could see, ___38___ the eyes of a blind child, the problem was not with the ___39___; the problem was me. And for all of those times I myself had been ___40___, I vowed(发誓) to see beauty, and appreciate every second that"s mine.
I held that wilted(枯萎) flower up to my nose and breathed in the fragrance of a beautiful rose and smiled as that young boy.

You don’t know this but I was trying to kill myself one night when you   52   me. I   53   you so much, and you didn’t even know you were   54   me.” We both cried. And I guess a kind of lesson from my life so far is to never   55   your friends.

One of my fondest Christmas memories was also one of our family’s bleakest(最令人沮丧的).We were just little kids , and on Christmas Day mom   21 us all around her to tell us ,  22  ,that there would be no presents because all we really wanted was to  23  for our daddy.He was very sick . I don’t remember anything else except four little girls surrounding my mother, crying   24  a miracle(奇迹)
At that very moment ,someone   25  loudly on the door.  26  Behind him was a merry group of soldiers from the Army base where my father   27  as a minister . News had  28   that we were in trouble ,and his colleagues knew we needed some  29  .
With all the excitement ,even my dad  30   in a blanket to keep warm , came down and sat in front of a roaring fire in our room to watch his children be  31  by good Samaritants(乐善好施的人). The presents were unwrapped , and we girls  32   packages and found a doll each and four board games.
What is  33   to me is that I don’t even remember what sickness my father was suffering from.I 34   remember an evening of laughter and  35   There were no expensive toys but    36  moments of friendship and fun given by young men who knew that a family was having a(n)  37  time . They gave their time and their  38  to little children who needed to laugh.
The most important thing in life aren’t things . And what about the true  39   of holidays ? I hope we all are able to remember a thing about the holidays that stirs(搅动)our heart , that isn’t really a thing at all, but the smile on a child’s face because we take a moment to hug or   40 a tear.
